History
of New Mexico: Land of the Brave, Land of the Slavesby Stew Cosentino
This book offers an unflinching view of the history of New Mexico-its
culture, civilization, and inhabitants who prospered and suffered under
Spanish and Catholic laws. Additionally, it explores the history of New
Mexico's native Indian tribes and its Mexican population from the early
days of area. Examining a variety of historical topics related to the state,
author Stew Cosentino presents a series of essays laced with supporting
facts and figures, not shying away from the controversial issues of race
and the treatment of New Mexican peoples by the federal government of the
United States. In a discussion of freedom and rights, Cosentino demands
that we consider the past handling by our government of this country's
native people, the American Indians, as well as the Mexican People who
have lived in New Mexico for over six hundred years.
